Full story from Reuters:

– Only high-profile brothels said their business was humming.

“The first few days have been a bit slow, but it has really picked up now,” said a spokesman for Pascha in Cologne, Europe’s largest brothel, declining to give his name. “We are working at 100 percent capacity and could do more if we had more space.”

“For us, soccer and sex go very well together,” he said. “In soccer there is always a winner and a loser. One needs a party, the other one needs consolation, and we can offer both.”

This match is becoming as interesting as the one featured on The Simpsons.

Here’s a guide on what settings to use to connect your Nintendo Dual Screen via its wi-fi connection (WFC) to your new Orange Livebox (should also work with Wanadoo Livebox). This is definitely not plug & play but what took me two hours should only take you five minutes now. This should also work exactly the same with your new DS Lite.

1. Change your Livebox configuration. Go to http://configuration.adsl/index2.html which should open your Livebox configuration page on your browser. There are two passwords you can use.

First try username -> ‘admin’ and password -> ‘admin’. These are the default settings.

Alternatively use your Orange or Wanadoo or even Freeserve login username and password here.

Make a note of your Livebox name, mine is WANADOO-B7E8. Now go to Configuration -> Advanced -> Wireless and choose the WEP Security Only option. After you submit this your Livebox should flash a bit so give it 5 minutes to adjust itself. On the same window click to Security -> Firewall and choose ‘low’. As long as you have a Firewall on your PC you’ll still be safe. Now click ‘System Information’ as we’ll need all this info in a minute.

2. Change your Nintendo DS settings. Plug in your game, Mario Kart DS for example, and go to the Nintendo WFC Settings Screen. Choose an empty connection and ‘Search for an Access Point’. You should see your new Livebox come up here as ‘WANADOO’ or ‘ORANGE’ followed by some numbers. Unfortunately you can also see the red lock icon but click it anyway and type in your WEP key as seen on the System Info screen we looked at earlier. Be careful typing this in and remember that you should only use letters A-F and numbers 0-9, no ‘i’s or ‘o’s, and turn CAPS LOCK on. Simple? Well hold on as we’re not finished yet and you’ll come up with an error if you try to connect.

3. Change your DS Wi-fi settings manually. Now press the ‘Manual Setup’ button on the connection screen which takes you into the settings control panel. You should have a SSID number in there, thats good. And your WEP key should be entered in there too. The rest of the details can be found by refering to your Livebox System Info, but be careful as the requested numbers do not always match up with the correct fields. Therefore you must enter these values exactly how I have specified them:
Auto-obtain IP Address = choose ‘No’
IP Address = enter the ‘DHCP server end address’ value
Subnet Mask = enter ‘255.255.255.0′
Gateway = enter the ‘LAN IP address’ value
Auto-obtain DNS = choose ‘No’
Primary DNS = enter the ‘Primary DNS server’ value
Secondary DNS = enter the ‘Secondary DNS server’ value

4. The last bit, honest! Now go over to your Livebox and you should see a small USB-sized socket on the back next to two buttons marked 1 and 2. You need to press button 1. Then select ‘Test Connection’ on the NDS settings screen. With any luck you should get the green wireless icon on your NDS buzzing away with three bars! Now save the settings and play!

I hope that helped somebody out! Good luck!

Update: Well I seem to have helped quite a few people out which is good news. Mitchell Edwards said he couldn’t get his DS to work unless he set the primary DNS to be the same IP as the gateway (192.168.1.1), so try that if you’re still not having any luck

I’ve also been told you can use these settings to connect your OSX Mac to the Orange Livebox too. Good luck with that.

And if I’ve saved anybody lots of time and money they can repay me buy visiting a few of the Google ads, signing up with Ladbrokes or downloading the Firefox browser using the links on the far right. You know it makes sense

Ah, my favourite part of the movie. This made me laugh!

Well summer looked like it had really started down the seafront last night. The area from the West Pier through to Hove Lawns was packed with around 3,000 under 18’s getting hammered on booze. It was lively but not rowdy and reminded me of my old Margate beach party days. There must have been quite a few casualties that night. By 10 there were a few passed out people and staggerers around but every one seemed to be having a laugh. I bet the Fortune of War was packed.

We did see the International Space Station though. I pointed out a bright moving light in the sky and after a bit of debate about it possibly being a plane I did get everyone to agree that it was a satalite. This morning I did some online research and discovered it was the ISS as it was travelling over the UK at exactly that time. There’s a good article about it at The Register and you can check the times you’ll see the ISS from Brighton Beach from NASA. We got six minutes of it last night which is much better than the 2 minutes you get at other times of the year.

It seems the World Cup is still wide open as both France and Brazil failed to show the world that they deserve the cup without turning up. As we come up to the time where every team has played once I’m taking a fresh look at the betting odds.

To Win Tournament: Team - last week odds - current odds
France 12/1 16/1
Japan 150/1 350/1
Iran 250/1 500/1
Trinidad & Tobago 750/1 500/1

France now at 16/1 is a surprise but expected after their performance yesterday. It’s a good price though as we do know they can raise their game when expected.

There has hardly been any movement in the Tournament Top Scorer odds. Apart from Germany’s Kloser who is now 4/1. Luca Toni is still available at 20/1 and is definitly worth a punt.

The two match winning outside bets I placed both failed but I nearly came close when Trinidad & Tobago drew with Sweden. A win for T&T would have netted me £30! Here are the two bets I placed for this week:
15 Jun Trinidad & Tobago to beat England - £3 10/1
18 Jun Australia to beat Brazil - £3 10/1

You can get 400/1 on Japan and Australia qualifying, if you believe in miracles, like I did.
